MIPS/Perf-events: Remove pmu and event state checking in validate_event()
Why removing pmu checking: Since 3.2-rc1, when arch level event init is called, the event is already connected to its PMU. Also, validate_event() is _only_ called by validate_group() in event init, so there is no need of checking or temporarily assigning event pmu during validate_group(). Why removing event state checking: Events could be created in PERF_EVENT_STATE_OFF (attr->disabled == 1), when these events go through this checking, validate_group() does dummy work. But we do need to do group scheduling emulation for them in event init. Again, validate_event() is _only_ called by validate_group().
